Source: BLS QCEW — Quarterly

Each blue bar sums the QoQ establishment growth across industries that gained firms; the red bar sums the loss across industries that shed firms. The dark line shows the county's BLS-published private establishment net change (own_code=5, agglvl=71) — it does not equal the sum of the bars because BLS suppresses small-cell industries from the per-sector view. The dashed gold benchmark is U.S. private-sector QoQ growth rescaled to the county's private establishment base — like-for-like with the bars. Trailing quarters with no benchmark mean the national figure hasn't been published yet. Q1 typically shows a large negative pattern across counties due to year-end reporting cycles in QCEW. This is not true gross firm openings and closings — BLS does not publish those at the county level.
